Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Reproducing this bug is quite easy and always reproducible :

Open oowriter and write some text.
Choose to compose a new mail in Evolution.
Copy the text from oowriter and paste it into Evolution (this works equally with the Unix copy/paste (select+middle click) or the traditionnal copy/paste (ctrl-c+ctrl-v).
Oowriter crashes and close itself !

It happens every time and is always reproducible for all users on this machine (even a newly created user). It has to be noted that I always tested with the french locale.

This rather strange bug happens on a Edgy computer with no other repositories than the official :

edgy main restricted universe multiverse
edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse
edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse

This computer is a straight edgy updated from a straight dapper updated from a straight breezy install.

I forgot to add that it only happens when pasting in Evolution. I cannot reproduce the bug by pasting it in gedit (for example).

I did a quick gdb on it, unfortunatly not a dbg package, and the crash only mentionned :

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I tested this on another edgy computer (but which is not a clean install at all, it was updated daily during the edgy dev cycle) and this is 100% reproducible on this one too !
